UK spec Coupe?
 

I'm looking for info on the UK spec Audi 90 Coupe' (I believe it was simply
called the A2 in Europe). I know that the U.S. spec version was sold only with
the 90's 5 cylinder engine, and that an S2 variant appeared in Europe. What I'd
like are specs for the S2, as well as info on any other 90/A2 variants sold in
the UK and Europe as a whole. I believe someone once told me that an A2 powered
by the 12 valve Audi V6 was sold in Europe.

It was never called 90 nor A2. It was named Audi Coupé, just that.
The ones you mean are B4 series, there was a Coupé before that until 1989.
Starting with a 2.0 multipoint engine up to the S2 with the famous 5cyl
turbo and quattro.
Two V6 engines were used, 2.6 and 2.8 litres.

This page -in German only- lists them all.

Calling it Coupe' is technically correct, but so is 90 Coupe'. The little bit
of information I found said that it was offcially the 90 Coupe' (as it was
really little more than a 2-door version of the 90 sedan), and that U.S. spec
variants were powered by the same 2.3 litre I5 that Audi sold in the 90. In
addition, I know that there was a European version titled S2, and I was told
once that A2 was it's European name, although I'm not positive that was
correct. I know an S2 version was sold in Europe, and I'm fairly positive that
at least one variant was powered by an Audi V6. Those are the models I want
specs for.

I have never heard of an A2 Coupe here in the UK. We have the A2 which is a
small hatch-back and came out about 3/4 years ago.

Yes, an S2 Coupe was available.
